We have a client who asked about notifications, when f.x. a page needs to be published.
He wants to manually choose the receiver of a specific notification. When he creates a blogentry, he will be able to choose ie. [email protected] to be the receiver, when he "Save and send to publish".
It doesn't work quite the way he wants to, when a user subscribes to notifications, because when he "Save and send to publish" it will send to everyone subscribed.
Does Umbraco do this out of the box or is there some other way to do it.
This is an out of the box functionality in umbraco. What you need to do is make the user subscribe to this section by right clicking under any content under the content section and choose Notifications and then choose the field to notify for.
This will work without any problems. But lets say that 3 users have subscribed to "Blogs" and content below that page. He want to be able to select a specific user to receive a notification mail.
Then each of them can have different notifications. How about creating a custom Context Menu where the admin will be able to choose who to send notifications to ?
